We cant beat a pub team enoughs enough ,

[bozzy]

What else should we expect having a celebrity for a manager, lost more ground today, but I bet you he will be smiling in his post match interview, Pub football again..

[Spiritater]

Dire.

[oldweststander]

Referee was diabolical, only woke up second half.

We have been very poor in two home games, never looked like scoring in either.

Let's start training on monday with passing practice and ask Mr Boateng to, sometimes, make a positive pass forward.

[BH_Stag]

As expected, rubbish.

That brief moment of excitement we had for 10 seconds when Oates looked like he might do something felt so rare it’s unbelievable.

Don’t see any way this lot make top 7, simply not good enough. The lack of urgency on the pitch and on the touch line is a concern as well

Don’t stop with Bowery.

1 goal in the last 4 but at least we’ve had ‘situations‘. I know everyone is terrified to say it but if we finish outside of the playoffs then it’s a huge failure from the management team this season and questions should be asked.

There'll be plenty of excuses prepared. We've not been good enough all season have we really? Occasional flashes of looking ok but no more than that. Only one thing we do well is disappointment.

There isn’t anything to be terrified about asking.

If we finish outside the playoffs it would be an abysmal failure one that would needed to thoroughly reviewed.

As it is there’s still time to go so let’s wait until the end of the season before any needless hypothetical scenarios.

[Johnny Rotten]

At least it ended our 100% losing record against today's opposition

[five to three]

Carry on like this and Gillingham will finish above us!

[Sandy Pate Best Stag]

I’m pleased that is over as my eyes were starting to bleed. No quality or cohesion anywhere on the pitch and very few moments to believe it will get much better.

The ref thought he was the star of the show and I hope we never see him again.

Plenty of effort but some abysmal control and clueless efforts.

The only bright spot was an excellent debut from James Gale who gave his all and was our only player to come out of it with above average credit. A couple of others gave solid performances, Clarke and Hewitt, but we certainly won’t make the playoffs without huge improvements.

The sooner we get some of the walking wounded back the better. As much as Quinn should be castigated for his lunge, he must also come straight back in.

Hopefully just another 9 games to endure with this manager and his negative brand of football .97 minutes played and not one shot on target, in the whole game, tells you everything you need to know. As for his ten men back,every corner and free kick so that everything starts from our 18 yard box, it's now getting beyond a joke. Thanks Nigel, but time to move on.

[Surfingstag1]

atrocious - at home - and bullied off the park - few serious efforts on goal

[Sandy Pate Best Stag]

With all the disappointment of that show, the injury to Harbottle has taken a bit of a back seat.

I hope the lad isn’t too bad and it’s another body blow to the defence.

[yorkshire stag]

horrible game

[bellwhiff]

Gale working hard. DJ nowhere. No instinct and no presence. Would be interesting to see Gale and Oates.

I can’t go for that, no can do.

[bellwhiff]

Oh and where are the apologists. We are choking. Responsibility is the privilege of rank. Can’t wait for Nigel”s debrief.

[Sneag]

Absolute turd of a performance.

Great to see a timewasting substitution when you need to grab a winner.

You might as well play Flinders upfront ahead of Johnson, he's stealing a wage.

[talbot_ben]

The only positive from that game was Gale and the raspberry took him off

Were not there yet you dont hang a man till hes guilty

[arsene wengers coat]

4 games and 4 pretty poor performances. 3 points.

Not going up. Not good enough to go up.

Fans will turn soon.

[adamstag]

on the upside the clocks change tonight which means we automatically become 1 hour closer to next weeks thriller against crawley

Which has all the hallmarks of the... 'Crawley are fighting for their lives' excuse in his post match interview from Nige when we mess up again.

[PostmanPat]

We’re going nowhere under Clough
